Senate Votes Big Chop on Housing Bill Amid Compromise Move
The Senate, by 67 to 11, accepts a bipartisan compromise reducing the 1997 omnibus housing bill to about 1.6 billion dollars. Bricker’s amendment trims 1.25 billion in authorizations, shaping final provisions though passage is delayed to tomorrow. The plan lowers down payments on FHA loans to 3 percent on the first 10,000, 4 percent on the next 60,000, and 30 percent on larger amounts.

Senate Debates Home Mortgage Plan and Gore Amendment
PRESENT LAW sets a tax on mortgages with 4 percent on the first 9000 and 25 percent above. The Senate plan would require an $800 down payment on a 15000 house versus 1050 now. Gore proposed banning discounts on government backed mortgages to curb subsidies, drawing Republican opposition and a roll call. Gore argued the funds are repaid, but Republicans warned the move could negate budget and tax cut prospects.
